Testimonial for Tamara Anne Cleaver - Doula & Yoga Teacher (RYT-200)
I am happy to write a review for postpartum Doula extraordinaire, Tamara Cleaver. Being first time parents, my husband and I quickly became overwhelmed when our newborn daughter started having terrible digestion issues and therefore was constantly uncomfortable, resulting in intense and lengthy bouts of scream crying. It was traumatic to see our little one in so much discomfort and very difficult for us to handle due to the stress and lack of sleep. After the first 6 weeks of trying to manage on our own, we called on Tamara's postpartum services based on a referral from our birth Doula.
From the moment we met, Tamara's calm and kind nature was apparent and appreciated. Her many years of experience helped guide us through one of most difficult times of our lives. She spent a number of hours one on one with me and my daughter, offering support, knowledge and understanding. In addition to our time spent together, she would follow up on questions by email, phone or text, always willing to be available in a time of need.
Over the next few months our daugther's crying and irritability was not improving and I called upon her once again for advice. It was at this time, based on her experienced observation that she forwarded contact details for professional services to help diagnose our daughter's condition. Without a doubt, we would still be stuck if she hadn't taken the extra time to search out options for us and we are greatful for her dedication to helping our difficult situation.
It has been a pleasure getting to know her and having her as our postpartum Doula. I would highly recommend Tamara to any family looking for an experienced Doula with a friendly ear and a loving heart.
